Ring-tailed lemurs have highly social troops of up to 30 members.
They are female-dominant, with females eating and drinking first during scarcity.
Ring-tailed lemurs use scent glands for territorial marking and “stink fights.”.
Their tails, longer than their bodies, help with balance and social signaling.
They make a wide range of sounds, including a loud yodel for territorial claims.
Despite being endangered, they are the most common lemurs in zoos worldwide.
